I needed an inexpensive monitor to use with my netbook at home. Did not want to toggle with the high-end IPS monitor that I use with my tower. This ASUS met all my requirements (size, price, etc.) ... and when I actually fired it up was amazed at the display quality.
The LED backlighting makes a tremendous amount of difference. While super bright (can be adjusted down), it is still soft on the eyes.

Got this monitor as a replacement for my old 15" LCD screen ($107). The monitor work great so far, great contrast ratio. Very clear picture and bright screen. Simple and easy to set up. The only problem i have with this monitor is that even tho it is a LED i would think it support digital input (DVI or HDMI). However it only have analog(VGA)input.

I purchased this monitor based on the info available, which showed a picture of connection for vga(analog) + dvi. Got the monitor and it only has vga. What a disappointment.
